Looking back, I love both bike. After a few months of ownership, I prefer the Townie, better quality but expensive boutique brand. When I got my sixthreezero EvryJourney 7 spd, I had a mobile bike shop assemble my bike. It cost about $85 and I get free adjustments. You might consider getting a used Townie then get it tuned up at your Local Bicycle Shop. 3, 7 speed bikes are more expensive than the 21 speed bike. The 7 speed is a good all around bike, but the 21 speed has more hill climbing capabilities. I got my townie on craigslist. I love both of them for different reasons. Good luck to you.
